Description Commissioned in the middle 24th century, the type 15 crafts are the smallest of the  available shuttlepods.  They are used because of their small size and reduced functionality (only impulse drive) particularly as inspection and landing crafts for spaceships and starbases.  They are adapted to repair and maintenance missions.  The type 15 offers workstations for two people, and can be uncomplicatedly handled. These shuttles also have two standard phaser emitters.
